It’s happening in subtle, but pleasant ways.

The other day, two co-workers, one with whom I don’t interact very much, stopped me in the hall and said, “Oh my gosh!  Look at you!  You can tell in your face that you’re losing weight”.  Okay, so that was none too subtle, but it was nice to hear.

Thursday night, Mandypants said, “You’ve been going to the gym, haven’t you?  I can tell.”  A nice statement.

Saturday at Gideon’s party, he seemed almost taken aback for the first few seconds when he picked me up, like he didn’t recognize me.  And during the party, he even patted my stomach as he passed by.

Am I blowing smoke up my own ass?  Entirely possible. 

Still, it’s nice to know that these two to three days a week for the past few months are paying off in some small way.  I may not yet be Marky Mark circa 1994 by any stretch of the imagination, but the effort is there.  You.  Guy.  Sssss.
